Donald and Ivana Trump in 2014

Ivana Trump rarely speaks to the press, but still made an exception for the New York Post and spoke quite frankly in an interview about the details of her relationship with ex-husband Donald Trump.

67-year-old Trump says that Donald wanted to participate in the presidential election for a long time, but at one time his ambitions were prevented by the fact that he ... cheated on her.

About five years before our divorce, he received a letter from Reagan or someone else who wrote to him: "You should run for president." He seriously thought about it. But then a scandal broke out, a divorce. American women loved me and hated him. It was not at all the time to try his hand at politics. But since then he has not parted with this idea.


Ivana is referring to the events that led to her and Donald's separation in 1991. Trump cheated on his wife with Marla Maples, an actress and beauty pageant contestant. Having learned about her husband's infidelity from Maples herself, Ivana Trump filed for divorce. She and Donald have been married since 1977 and have three children - Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric. After the divorce, Trump married Marla Maples, but they separated six years later.


By the way, Ivana Trump says that Marla asked her forgiveness:

She apologized to me in an interview with the Daily Mail. The journalists then asked me if I accepted the apology, and I said that I did not. Why would I take them? She ruined my marriage.

But Ivana has no complaints about Trump’s current wife, and she believes that Melania Trump will make a good first lady:

She'll be fine. She didn’t do anything bad to me, I wish them only the best.


In an interview, Ivana Trump also spoke about how she met Donald. It was in 1976 when the Czech model came with friends to one of the fashionable New York establishments, which was hard to get into.

A tall blond man with blue eyes came up to us and said: "I'm Donald Trump. I see you are looking for a table, I can help you." I told my friends: "The good news is that we will now be seated at a table, the bad news is that this guy will sit with us."

After dinner, Ivana recalls, Trump paid the bill and disappeared:

I said, "Very strange, I've never seen a man pay for a woman and want nothing from her." But when we got out, we saw Donald in his limousine. He took us home and we started dating.

Now, almost 25 years after the breakup, Donald and Ivana continue to communicate:

We talk before and after his performances, he asks my opinion. I advise him to be more calm. But Donald can't do that, he says what he thinks. He is not a politician, but a businessman. He can speak and can give a speech for an hour without looking at the notes.


According to Ivana, she generally agrees with many of the ideas of the ex-spouse. For example, in the question about immigrants:

I am an immigrant myself. I have nothing against the Mexicans, but it happens that a 19-year-old girl comes here, she is pregnant, gives birth for free in an American clinic. The child automatically becomes an American. She transports her whole family, does not work, does not pay taxes. She is given housing and food. And who pays for it? We are with you.

But I'm not against those who come legally, find jobs... We need immigrants. Who will vacuum our living rooms and clean up after us? Americans don't like to do this.


Donald Trump was the second and most "long-playing" of Ivana Trump's four husbands: her other marriages did not last more than five years. Now she is not married and, according to her, does not plan to, but she does not like to be alone. In men, he values ​​honesty and a sense of humor most of all.

And also youth:

I'd rather be a nanny than a nurse

She says.


And he doesn't have to be a millionaire

Summarizes Ivan.

With this post, I want to start a cycle about the main women in Donald's life - his first wife Ivana, daughter Ivanka and current companion - Melania. All these women are interesting and iconic personalities for their time, and we will start with Ivana, as the first and most significant (after his mother, of course;)) women in his life.

Ivana was born in a small Czech town in 1949. At the age of two, she already knew how to swim and ski - her father taught her this, which was a strategically correct step - sport determined Ivana's future. She grew up as a girl who had everything - intelligence, beauty, a good figure, abilities, self-discipline. Her father worked hard on the latter - one day, when Ivana's grades at school were lower than required, he took her out of school and sent her to work in a shoe factory.



Three weeks later, Ivana begged for a second chance and returned to her studies with triple zeal. After some time, Ivana receives a bachelor's degree at the Institute of Physical Education, marries her first husband and emigrates to Canada from socialist Czechoslovakia. There she begins her modeling career and spends several years defiling on the catwalk.

She met Donald in 1976 in New York in one of the bars, where she relaxed after a hard day of filming in the company of other girls. After 8 months they got married. Ivana gave birth to three children to Donald - Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric.




They say that life together with Donald was hard - he walked, had an explosive character and was very unrestrained in his language. In the 80s, their family was influential and famous: Donald's pressure and business acumen, multiplied by the right ability to present everything to the public and the media, did their job. Ivana was an ideal wife from the 80s - bright, talented, purposeful.




Already at that time he had ambitions to become President of the United States, but this was prevented by his betrayal of Ivana. Marla Maples became the reason for their separation, as soon as Ivana found out about the betrayal, she immediately filed for divorce. Instantly, all the love of American women went to Ivana, she was pitied and loved because she suffered, because she fell, but was able to rise.


After the divorce, Ivana received $ 25 million, founded her own clothing brand and wrote several books (with the help of literary blacks).

She married several more times, but her marriages did not last long. Ivana chooses young men for relationships: “I’d rather be a nanny than a nurse,” admits the billionaire’s ex-wife. Well, Ivana, we readily believe :) She does not grieve and enjoys life with might and main, as if time and age do not exist. Bravo, Ivana! We want to have the courage to do the same.


It seems that nothing has changed in Ivana's life - trends, hobbies for minimalism, the practicality of modern fashion and the ever-growing “normcore” style are passing by her wardrobe. Ivana lives like there's a party around and she's still an 80s girl, which means there's no reason to give up on bright colors, plunging necklines, and miniskirts (as well as young lovers).


Despite her rather advanced age, the former wife of billionaire Donald Trump continues to appear regularly in fashionable American tabloids and occupy a prominent place in the country's social life. And this is not only because she is the first legal wife of a presidential candidate, in the past and present of which journalists and competitors are actively digging. This attention is also related to the fact that Young Ivana Trump she did not lose her head, showed the necessary business acumen, making herself exactly who she is today - a business-like businesswoman who owns a huge fortune and the right to dispose of it all in the way that only she wants.

Considering the further experience of the marriages of her ex-husband Donald Trump and tracing their pattern, there is no doubt that Ivana Trump was distinguished by her rare beauty in her youth. Like her current follower (Melania Trump), she comes from the countries of the socialist camp. It was with her that the millionaire's passion for Slavic beauties began, about which jokes are being composed today. Photos of Ivana Trump in her youth are the best confirmation of this statement. A bright blonde with luxurious hair and long legs - this is exactly how we see her in these pictures. Although, to be honest, the future millionaire's modeling career turned out to be not too long and bright. Nevertheless, it was thanks to her work in this industry that the beautiful Czech woman managed to attract the attention of her future husband.

By the way, about marriage. Before meeting Donald Trump, Ivana was already legally married to an Austrian ski instructor. In her youth, Ivana Trump, although she relied on natural beauty, nevertheless developed in other directions. For example, she was part of the skiing team. Moreover, unlike the current Mrs. Trump, no one doubts the higher education of the heroine of our article. 13 years of marriage were also not in vain for her. Not limited to spending on luxury goods, Ivana Trump also delved into her husband's business projects. Due to which, in fact, she became the owner of a huge fortune after the divorce, did not disappear from the front pages of the tabloids, like, for example, Marla Maples, who is considered to be the culprit of the divorce once prosperous and beautiful (at least from the female side, since Donald Trump himself in his youth did not shine with special beauty) of the Trump couple. So the beauty that Ivana Trump distinguished in her youth is very successfully reinforced by dexterity and tough business acumen, coupled with a sharp mind.

Biography of Ivana Trump

The motherland of the woman is Czechoslovakia. Her mother was a telephone operator, and her father worked as an engineer. From a young age, Ivana was an athletic girl. At the age of 6, she won the first time in ski competitions. In 1972, Trump (nee Zelnichkov) was named to the Czechoslovakian cross-country skiing team. She combined sports with her studies at the Charles Institute in Prague.

In 1975, the woman came to Canada. Here she began to cooperate with a well-known fur company, becoming its main face. Then she went to New York. Becoming Trump's wife, the woman held key positions in her husband's company. After breaking up with Donald, she opened her own company, and also founded Ivana Haute Couture, a fashion house.
